While the two were silently speculating, the God of Ōtsutsuki spoke first, his voice cold:
"You dared slaughter my clansmen. Today, every last one of you will die here and join those clansmen I lost in death!"
With that, the God of Ōtsutsuki swept his hand, and the countless Ten-Tails God Trees behind him began to move.
All the Ten-Tails God Trees arranged themselves into three rows, forming three enormous circles.
Then the Ten-Tails God Trees extended their hands and suddenly plunged them straight into the bodies of their neighbors, gradually merging into one.
At that moment, white light suddenly shone from every Ten-Tails, and a beam of dark, unfathomable energy shot from each enormous mouth.
The beams interwove like three enormous Fishing Net Light Curtains, enveloping everyone.
At the sight, the Starfeather Great Emperor and the Rakshasa Holy Lord felt a faint sense of foreboding.
The Starfeather Great Emperor immediately swung his longsword, sending a powerful streak of Sword Energy shooting straight toward the Fishing Net Light Curtain.
With a tearing sound, a slit opened in the first Fishing Net Light Curtain, and the Sword Energy shot straight toward the second.

At this sight, the Rakshasa Holy Lord could not help exclaiming:
"What powerful defenses! And these nets can actually repair themselves!"
